Lao Dao grinned in the room and counted the hours: "No, it's been so long." Didn't you say that you would come when you were cured? ”

Nothing could go wrong, right? No, Lao Dao pursed his lips and blew on the place where his wrist was tied: "Oops, it's really a crime to be old." ”

What he didn't know was that there was a bath on the other side.

Jiang Yu is enjoying the washing of the natural spring water, and her delicate skin seems to wash away the haze of the past few days after bathing.

When she stepped out of the bath to put on her clothes and comb her hair in front of the vanity mirror, she saw that the white skin of the person in the mirror was ruddy.

This old man doesn't know what kind of magic he is doing, and after using the medicine, his skin is not only better than before, but the whole person looks a lot more delicate.

It's just that Jiang Yu's eyes are still lifeless, not as bright as before.

Shen Yanxi sat in the courtyard, holding the smooth white porcelain and rubbing it back and forth in his hand.

When he is nervous, there will be a lot of broken movements in his hands.

He sat like this for a long time, "Crunch." The door to Jiang Yu's room opened.

A graceful woman walked out, and when she saw Shen Yanxi, the corners of her mouth were slightly invisibly hooked up.

Her skin is as smooth as jade, smooth and delicate. A pair of jade hands are slender and slender, and the black and shiny hair is as smooth as a waterfall.

Shen Yanxi laughed, and his shoulders and neck, which were still straight, suddenly relaxed. looked at Jiang Yu with deep eyes.

They are speechless, but they can feel the turbulence in their hearts.

Nothing defeated her.

It seems that even if there is a thousand pounds of pressure, it will move forward.

The sun came out and shone on the two of them. His eyes were sparkling, his heart was up and down, and a thousand words were melted into a strong look.

"Hungry? Would you like to eat something. ”

Jiang Yu smiled: "Why do you care about whether I'm hungry or not all the time." ”

Shen Yanxi was slightly embarrassed, and planned to pour her a cup of tea, but she felt that the tea in the white jade teapot was already cold.

"Take me to the old man." Jiang Yu said.

She thought that this old way should have a lot to say to them.

Shen Yanxi didn't say anything different, and took Jiang Yu to the house where the old man was imprisoned.

Shen Yanxi's Huaizhou Annex, which is very large, is not inferior to the family backyard of the prefect's government.

Pavilions and pavilions, stone bridges and flowing water, scattered.

The corners of the eaves are decorated with colorful paintings, the octagonal pillars of the door frame are decorated with black lacquer oil, and there are gold lacquered animal face tin rings on the door.

It shows the owner's taste.

Walk through the forest that collects strange stones and sacred trees from all over the world and come to a gatehouse.

Shen Yanxi opened the locked wooden door, revealing the scene inside.

When the old man heard the movement of opening the door, he immediately put on the appearance of an old god.

The moment he saw Jiang Yu, his eyes lit up, and he sighed: "It's really the world."

Jiang Yu looked at him looking up and down at his obscene appearance, and frowned.

Shen Yanxi said coldly: "If you don't talk about your business, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to say it again." ”

Lao Dao retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "I'm just sighing, there really is such a fitting body in the world, and the hard work pays off, and you really found it." ”

When he said this, Lao Dao looked at Shen Yanxi with an indescribable meaning.

Shen Yanxi said: "This king doesn't care what kind of side door you cultivate, this matter can be regarded as you helping this king." ”

"This thing? I'm afraid it's not just this thing, Lao Dao has helped you a lot, and of course he can help you more in the future. ”

Jiang Yu said: "Oh? It's not a shame to say so. ”

The old man giggled.

Shen Yanxi said in a deep voice: "Don't sell it, say it quickly." What are you here this time? ”

"Okay, okay, I say." Lao Dao Zhengse said: "At this time, the two ministers must have seen some clues. ”

Jiang Yu and Shen Yanxi looked like they were listening.

The old man then said, "You may not believe it, but I am here to help you." ”

"I know all of Ye Meisheng's initial plans, but she will soon find out when I run out, and she will adjust her plans in time."

"There's only so much I can do to help you, you have to stop her."

Jiang Yu was surprised: "Why don't you continue to follow her?" Why help us? ”

"Ye Meisheng is simply a madman! Of course I can't follow her anymore, do you know what she's going to do? She wants to destroy the whole country! ”

"Lao Dao has lived to this age in this life, and to be honest, time is short. I just want to achieve some brilliance in peace. ”

Jiang Yu and Shen Yanxi glanced at each other, of course, as they speculated, Ye Meisheng didn't think about usurping power and seizing the throne at all, but wanted to directly destroy the entire dynasty.

If she can, she can do it if she wants the people of the world to bury her.

Jiang Yu's eyes were sharp, as if a sword light stabbed at Lao Dao, "Didn't you know his plan originally?" Why did you choose this time to come out? ”

"To be honest, I didn't know all of her plans at first. Later, as I went deeper, I gradually understood what she wanted to do. But the old way, I can't do anything on my own. ”

"What were you all doing then? Well? Before the time came, I could only watch her plan move forward little by little. ”

"I don't know if you ever thought about it if I hadn't brought you back from the dead." Lao Dao raised his chin and pointed at Jiang Yu

"And what are you doing now?" Lao Dao raised his chin and pointed at Shen Yanxi again.

If Jiang Yu completely died in the spring of two years ago, then Shen Yanxi would not care about the rise and fall of the world at all.

He wished that he only lived in the small world with Jiang Yu, crazy or stupid, or imaginary.

Shen Yanxi felt a warm touch on his hand, and his fingertips couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Jiang Yu reached out and held Shen Yanxi's palm, silently comforting.

She knew that his emotions were so hot that she couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb. She wants to convey warmth.

Lao Dao was afraid that the two of them would be angry, and he didn't care about their small actions, and ignored: "The epidemic in Huaizhou is mainly due to the problem of flooding, and at the same time, the water resources are polluted, and the water that everyone drinks is not clean. In fact, it is not transmitted through humans, but through water quality. ”

"The first priority is to build canals and improve water resources. Otherwise, everything will be in vain. ”

Shen Yanxi also coaxed the old man: "The master is really high, so what is the next step according to your opinion?" ”

Lao Dao snorted: "Stinky boy, dig a ditch." ”

"Dig big."

Jiang Yu pondered: "You mean, connect the river of Huaizhou to Runing?" ”

Lao Dao nodded with satisfaction: "The son is teachable, and she is worthy of being the eldest princess who fought her way out of the encirclement among the princes." ”

Diverting the water from Huaizhou to Runing can indeed solve the problems of the two places at the same time.

The originally arid and barren land of Runing was instantly turned into fertile land that could be irrigated, and at the same time, the problem of flooding in Huaizhou was solved.

It's a good idea.

However, this project is huge, and I am afraid that it will not be completed in more than ten years, and it will cost the people and money at every turn, and under the huge manpower and material resources, the voice of opposition will inevitably increase.

Shen Yanxi said: "The treasury has not been full in recent years. ”

The three of them looked at each other, and suddenly saw the same idea in their eyes.

"Rectify corrupt officials and corrupt officials."

There were quite a few corrupt officials in the current dynasty, and if we continue to investigate strictly, we will definitely find a number of small private vaults.

How full the state treasury can be depends on how strong it is to crack down on corrupt officials and corrupt officials.

Lao Dao continued: "Ye Meisheng is now in the capital, and he is about to marry Xiao Shizi in Beijing." ”

Jiang Yu and Shen Yanxi raised their eyebrows.

The Xiao family is a political class that has been passed down for generations, and it plays a pivotal role in the court.

Ye Meisheng's move to win Xiao Shizi will definitely be a crucial step in the future.

"Your future ring will be the capital."

If they want to confront head-on, they must return to the capital after solving the initial Huaizhou flood.

Back?

All the people in the capital are Jiang Yu's past acquaintances. You can't hide from associating with those high-ranking and dignitaries.

And again...

Jiang Yu may have to face to face with her former imperial brother, the current emperor.

Lao Dao shouted: "Hey, it's almost over, it's time to untie this shackle for me!" ”

Shen Yanxi whistled, and Qiang pushed the door in.

Shen Yanxi waved his hand and said, "Go and untie the shackles for him." ”

Qiang quickly untied the shackles on the wrists of the old man.

Lao Dao rubbed his wrist and said, "I owe it to me to help you sincerely at my age, this is your hospitality?" ”

Shen Yanxi said: "Sincere? We can all think of all the schemes just now. ”

"Hey—I said you kid, don't cross the river and tear down the bridge, don't think I'm afraid of your title as regent." The old man said dissatisfiedly.

"Besides, without me, the eldest princess's new face will be difficult."

Shen Yanxi was noncommittal: "Indeed, this king would like to thank you for this matter." In the future, when you are here in this king, good wine and good food will not lose you. In the future, the specific plan will have to be discussed with you. ”

Lao Dao flicked his sleeve robe, "Hmph, it's good to know." Also, send me some people, and protecting my safety is your first priority. ”

Shen Yanxi glanced at Qiang.

Qiang Ji pushed the old way and walked out: "Let's go~ I'll arrange a place for you to live." ”

Jiang Yu and Shen Yanxi strolled through the purple bamboo forest in the courtyard.

Shen Yanxi was still thinking about the touch that Jiang Yu took the initiative to shake just now, "Do you want to go out for a walk?" ”

"Okay." Jiang Yu agreed.

It's good to go out for a walk, I haven't gone out to blow the wind for a long time, and it's good to change my mood.

"Where is the prefect...... How are they? ”

The last time I heard that the eldest lady and Wang Fu's children came back from a study tour, there was no movement after Wang Fu was buried.

She still remembers that night, Wang Fu's second brother broke into the boudoir at night.

He obviously returned to Huaizhou early, and he didn't show up immediately when he learned the news of his mother's death.

Is the so-called second brother returning to Huaizhou alone, and then waiting for the eldest lady's eldest brother to come back to Huaizhou before showing up and returning home together? Or did both of them return to Huaizhou early but did not show up.

This thing is strange, and there must be something unknown in it.

Shen Yanxi's voice sounded: "The one from Wang Fu has been adopted by the eldest lady these days. ”

He has always been well versed in information.

Jiang Yu was speechless in shock when she heard it. Will the eldest lady actually adopt?
